One of the easiest and time saving things you can do to voice your opposition to Trump is to call your Senators and just simply say "Don't support or do support" whatever the issue is you're interested in.

I PROMISE YOU IT WON'T TAKE LONGER THAN 30 SECONDS TO CALL!

Union of Concerned Citizens sent me this email to ask Colorado Senators' Gardner and Bennett to say no to Scott Pruitt's for EPA administrator.

Sen Gardner ph 303-391-5777 Sen Bennett ph 303-455-7600

You can literally call and say to the person answering the phone or on the message that you want them to vote against Scott Pruitt for EPA Administrator. Senator Bennett's office answered the phone when I called and Cory Gardner only and voice mail.

On this particular issue, "President Trump has nominated Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt to be Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. I presented the following testimony at a Senate Democratic roundtable explaining two reasons why Mr. Pruitt is unfit to be EPA Administrator: (1) he misrepresented his positions and misled Senators during his confirmation hearing; and (2) he has stated his intention to continue disabling conflicts of interest if he becomes EPA Administrator by switching sides and representing EPA in ongoing lawsuits and related rule makings in which Mr. Pruitt is suing EPA to overturn EPA clean air and clean water protections." -- January 25, 2017John WalkeREAD FULL ARTICLE

I made two more calls to my Senators to oppose the Muslim ban. Please do your part and call!

I visited the Tiger Temple in Thailand & later found out it is under investigation for tiger trafficking and animal abuse. Read full story. In 2015 it was raided. More than 100 tigers and protected bird species in Wat Pa Luang Ta Bua, popularly known as the Tiger Temple in Kanchanaburi province were impounded by authorities following complaints that the temple was alleged to engage in illegal wildlife trading.
